"Tough and ruthless" is a reason to hate us, not work with us. While it may be some sort or fetish thrill to some of the war-lovers, it's not a recipe for, oh I don't know... actually achieving peace and stability.

Yes. I got that, but then kinda got off track. The thing is, as Americans, do we really want our military to be desensitized, unthinking, unfeeling killers? Really?

I think some people do. Honestly, there is a vein thought, philosophy and unnatural, egocentric self assuredness that has given me insight to how the Third Reich rose to dominance. I'm not being hyperbolic. I'm talking about the consolidation of power and destruction of dissent, not "final solutions" and genocide. (Though from the statements from some politicians I do get the feeling that Muslims are viewed as less valuable in the family of man)
